Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/09/2018 -- Biopsy forceps are surgical instruments used by surgeons or health care providers for grasping or holding objects and to collect samples, especially tissues for testing and diagnosis of diseases. The sample obtained from the patient's body using biopsy forceps is then analyzed for disease condition, which enables health care providers to decide the course of treatment. Biopsy forceps are also used by surgeons during a surgical procedure to delicately handle tissues and vital organs and for performing a safe surgery. Biopsy forceps offered by market players are available in different shapes and sizes such as straight, angled, short, and long. The type of procedure to be performed, including tissue sampling or surgical procedures such as gynecological procedures, determines the type of biopsy forceps to be employed.

Rise in incidence of chronic diseases such as cancer and gastrointestinal infections including helicobacter pylori (H Pylori) are presenting a large number of patients requiring biopsy tests for diagnosis. This is leading to increase in demand for and consumption of biopsy forceps for tissue sampling. Moreover, a rise in patient pool undergoing surgical procedures around the world and shift of patients and health care providers toward minimally invasive surgical procedures are expected to further augment the demand for biopsy forceps for surgical applications. Furthermore, new and advanced products with ergonomic designs offered by market players and introduction of biopsy forceps for specific applications are some of the major factors expected to drive the global biopsy forceps market during the forecast period. However, higher cost of the products owing to constant upgrades by market players is one restraining factor of the global biopsy forceps market
